Ioan Gelflex isn't very capable in handling boards with a lot of higher components in a cluster ( e.g. plcc's). Furthermore after some tests I found that the quality of finepitch deposits was less when I used gelflex compared to standard magnetic tooling pins.

What is your experience with this system? I would like to buy something of the kind for our newly acquired UP2000 printer, as moving supports around is a real ordeal. I see in the spec that the gel packs have limited life. How often do I need to change them? When expired, can I change the gel packs only, or I basically have to change the whole system? Thank you, Ioan Tempea, ing.
